Leaving Xu Lin’s clinic, Lin Jiang checked the time and headed over to Zhao Fangfei’s.
RING RING RING—
He had just gotten into his car when his phone rang. It was Feng Qi.
"Brother Jiang, you still busy?"
"Just about to get some food."
"Come pick me up. We can head back together. Hehe, I have a surprise for you if you do."
"What kind of surprise? You going to show me your splits?"
"Oh, please. That’s nothing. You’ll see when you get here."
"Alright, send me the address."
"Okay."
After hanging up, Lin Jiang quickly received the location from Feng Qi and drove to the dance studio.
Compared to Li Zhiyi’s dance studio, Feng Qi’s was a bit simpler.
But she supposedly had a stake in the studio, and with over a hundred thousand fans online, her income was quite substantial.
Meanwhile, a black Mercedes G-Wagon parked across the street from the studio.
Zhou Sui had a cigarette dangling from his lips, watching the entrance of the dance studio.
"Brother Sui, I thought we were picking up your girlfriend. What are we doing parked here?"
The speaker was in the passenger seat. He was one of Zhou Sui’s lackeys, named Shang Hongliang.
"She’s been acting weird lately. I came to see what’s going on," Zhou Sui said, his eyes narrowed.
Shang Hongliang sensed something was off.
"You don’t think she’s seeing someone else, do you?"
"It’s a possibility."
"She’s lucky to have a boyfriend like you. I doubt she’d do that."
"We’ll see about that."
"What made you suspicious?"
"Lately, whenever I ask her out, she makes an excuse. I called her several times this morning, but she didn’t pick up. And when we do talk, she’s not as enthusiastic as she used to be. I think something’s wrong."
"But the thing is, she won’t find anyone better if she leaves you. There’s no way she’d give up a gold mine."
"It’s true not many guys can compare to me, but..."
Zhou Sui stopped mid-sentence, because he saw a Maybach pull up in front of the dance studio.
Shang Hongliang was about to say something when he noticed the color drain from Zhou Sui’s face.
He followed Zhou Sui’s gaze and saw the Maybach parked at the entrance.
A bad feeling washed over him.
"Brother Sui, you don’t think..."
Just then, the two of them saw Feng Qi walk out of the dance studio and get into that Maybach!
"Let’s go!"
Zhou Sui threw open his car door and immediately gave chase.
Meanwhile, Feng Qi had already gotten into Lin Jiang’s car.
"Feng Qi! What the hell do you think you’re doing!"
Just as Lin Jiang was about to drive away, he saw Zhou Sui chasing after them.
Feng Qi hadn’t expected Zhou Sui to pull a stunt like this.
"We’re breaking up. Bye. Brother Jiang, drive."
Lin Jiang: ???
’No buildup at all?’
VROOM—
Stomping on the gas, Lin Jiang drove away.
Zhou Sui and Shang Hongliang were left standing there, completely stunned.
He’d been dumped with a one-two-three combo. What the hell was that about?
"You could have at least given Zhou Sui some time to react," Lin Jiang said.
"I’ve wanted to break up for a while now. He’s the one who’s been shamelessly refusing to let go. This was the perfect opportunity."
Feng Qi said while fiddling with her phone, "I think you’re supposed to block them, then delete them. That way they can never add you as a friend again, right?"
"I think so."
RING RING RING—
Just then, Zhou Sui’s call came through.
"I bet he’s calling to get back together."
"You think so?"
"Definitely. Just listen if you don’t believe me."
With that, Feng Qi answered the phone.
"What."
"Feng Qi, what’s your problem? We’ve been together for so long, and you just break up like that!"
"I should be asking what your problem is! You were following me, weren’t you? Since you don’t even trust me, what’s the point of being together?"
"But what about you getting into his car!"
"Fangfei invited him to her place for dinner. What’s wrong with him giving me a ride?! Facts aside, this is all your fault! Don’t call me again. We’re done!"
"Fine, I admit I was wrong. I didn’t suspect you, I just wanted to pick you up from work. Please forgive me."
Lin Jiang: ...
’Just like Pan Yongbin, he’s been played for a complete dumbass.’
"No! I’m still not happy!"
"Didn’t you want that tote bag? I’ll buy it for you!"
"Just buying the bag isn’t enough! You’re not allowed to see me for the next three months!"
"How am I supposed to do that? I won’t be able to handle it!"
"Handle it or we break up."
"Fine, fine, fine, if you say three months, it’s three months."
"I’m hanging up. I don’t want to talk right now."
With that, Feng Qi hung up the phone and looked at Lin Jiang smugly.
"See? What did I tell you? He was definitely calling to beg me to get back together."
"You’ve got him twisted into a complete idiot."
"After we hooked up, I didn’t want to be with him anymore. But he kept apologizing and acting like he’d die without me. I had no choice but to string him along."
"You’ve got him fucking hooked, lined, and sinkered."
"Forget him. My own lips are getting pursed."
Lin Jiang: ???
’I don’t think he’s talking about her mouth. For her, ’pursed’ isn’t the word. More like ’gaping’.’
After driving for more than half an hour, Lin Jiang arrived at Zhao Fangfei’s home.
"Brother Jiang."
Zhao Fangfei stood at the door, an apron tied around her.
Seeing the two of them arrive together, Zhao Fangfei’s expression turned a little strange, yet also suggestive.
Feng Qi, however, played dumb and walked into the house with Lin Jiang.
Zhao Fangfei bent over and found a pair of slippers for Lin Jiang.
"Brother Jiang, just a moment. The food is almost ready."
"Then I’ll just wait for the feast."
"Mmm-hmm."
"I’ll be waiting to eat, too!" Feng Qi said.
"What are you waiting for? Come and help!"
"You vicious woman."
Zhao Fangfei shooed Feng Qi into the kitchen and then brought out a set of blue plaid pajamas.
"Brother Jiang, I bought these for you. Change out of your clothes, you’ll be more comfortable."
"Mm."
Lin Jiang didn’t bother going to the bedroom, changing into the pajamas right there by the sofa.
Zhao Fangfei started drooling at the sight of Lin Jiang’s perfect body and abs.
"Brother Jiang, I’m going to finish cooking. Be patient," she teased.
"Mm."
Lin Jiang lay down on the sofa to rest. Before long, the two women brought out the prepared dishes.
They, too, had changed into nightgowns.
Zhao Fangfei was wearing nothing underneath, while Feng Qi had on black lingerie.
’Looks like "Fight the Landlord" is on the menu tonight.’
Zhao Fangfei brought over the decanted red wine and poured a glass for each of them. They clinked their glasses softly, and the atmosphere began to heat up.
"By the way, Brother Jiang, there was something I forgot to ask you," Feng Qi said.
"Do you know the boss of ’Super Play’?"
"I invested in that. Why are you asking about it?"
"I heard from Zhou Sui over the past few days that ever since the competition ended, Trendy World’s daily active users have plummeted. It’s been completely left in the dust by ’Super Play’. He said they’re thinking of holding a jazz dance competition to boost their numbers and wants me to enter. Are you guys thinking of doing something similar?"
"That’s a good idea, it’s worth considering."
"If you guys hold that event, I’ll compete on your side."
"You really aren’t giving him any face, are you?" Zhao Fangfei said.
"It’s mainly because I have no feelings for him at all. I feel like even communicating is a hassle."
"I’ll look into it. But jazz dance isn’t that exciting. Cheerleading, on the other hand... now that kind of competition has plenty to watch."
Feng Qi’s eyes lit up. She stuck out her leg and lifted her nightgown.
"I can do cheerleading too."
"Damn, getting hot already, are we?"
"Oh, come on. Just have a look, it’s no big deal."
After a few more rounds of drinks and food...
Zhao Fangfei’s face was slightly red. Unable to hold her liquor, she was already tipsy.
"Brother Jiang."
"We’re about done with dinner. Brother Jiang, you should go take a shower."
"Alright."
Lin Jiang got up and stretched a bit. ’Time to play "Fight the Landlord" tonight,’ he thought. ’I need to warm up, too.’
After a quick rinse, Lin Jiang came out, and then Zhao Fangfei and Feng Qi went into the bathroom.
"Brother Jiang, go to my room first. Come out when I call for you."
"Getting all mysterious on me."
"Hurry up and go. I have a surprise for you."
"Alright."
’Even though I already knew what the surprise was, I still felt a flicker of anticipation now that it was about to happen.’
About half an hour later, Zhao Fangfei’s voice came from the living room.
"Brother Jiang, you can come out now."
Hearing her voice, Lin Jiang walked out of the bedroom. He saw the two women, wrapped only in bath towels, standing by the windowsill with their backs to him. The hazy, suggestive image was absolutely lethal.
"Brother Jiang, this is the surprise I prepared for you. Do you like it?"
"Of course I do."
"Today, you get the first move," Zhao Fangfei said generously.
"In that case, I won’t hold back..."
RING RING RING—
Just then, Feng Qi’s phone rang. It was Zhou Sui.
"So annoying, calling at a time like this."
Feng Qi held her phone, ready to hang up, not wanting Zhou Sui to ruin her fun.
"No no no, don’t hang up."
"Why not? So he can listen in?"
"Exactly."
Lin Jiang: ???
’As expected of my number three pet. Zhao Fangfei, you really know how to set the scene!’
Once things got started, Feng Qi answered the call.
"Honey, what are you doing? I miss you."
"Playing ’Fight the Landlord’. Let’s talk later."
"Don’t hang up," Zhao Fangfei said. "You two can talk. It won’t get in the way of our game. Go on, chat."
"Fangfei’s so considerate. Thanks," Zhou Sui said from the other end of the line.
[You have completed a "Fight the Landlord" match for the first time. Physique +1]
[You have achieved a grand victory in the "Fight the Landlord" match. Martial Force +1]
「The next day.」
When Lin Jiang woke up, he felt something was off.
He opened his eyes to find that, first thing in the morning, the two women had already begun to feast.
"Brother Jiang, don’t move. Let us," Zhao Fangfei said, her words muffled.
Lin Jiang lay on the bed, enjoying it.
’He checked the time. It was a little past eight. Their ’morning workout’ should be done before ten, which left him plenty of time to get to Red Star Town this afternoon.’
After the previous night’s initiation, both women had loosened up considerably. They were even starting to compete, the polite deference from last night completely gone.
About an hour later, the morning workout was over.
Since it was Sunday and neither of the women had to work, Lin Jiang left on his own.
"I can’t... I feel like I’m going to die..."
Feng Qi collapsed onto the bed, unable to even stand.
Zhao Fangfei was also extremely exhausted.
"The two of us still lost..."
"I know... How can the difference between people be so huge?"
